HR as a Profit Center: Communication and employee’s involvement

Regular HR communication: The vision, values, and goals of the company should be regularly communicated to employees, using different communication tools. Bad news is shared while success is celebrated. All employee’s need to be affected by the communication.

HR strategies and activities need to be communicated and spread among the employees. Sometimes HR doesn’t get the respect they deserve, also because a lot of what they do happens behind the scenes.

Involve employees in setting strategic goals: If employees are part of this process, they are more likely to really support the goals. Each employee should be part of finding revenue-generating opportunities. This co-management would not only have a positive impact on the revenues but also on the employee satisfaction and the employee’s understanding of how their jobs contribute to the company’s success.
